Former player and coach of the Russian national team Igor Korneev believes that Abaskal’s decisions show his lack of interest in team captain Georgiy Dzhikia. His words are quoted Metatations.
“From the outside, Jikia’s future in Spartak is quite uncertain. There is no proper communication with the player, the situation is left to chance.
I don’t think Dzhikia will stay. Abaskal shouts that he is not needed with the decisions he has taken for a long time. The acquisition of Babich is one of them.
As for Jikia going to a foreign championship, this feels like a fantasy right now!” – said Korneev.
Dzhikia has been playing for Spartak since 2017. With the club he won the championship and the Russian Cup. The defender has only played in six of a possible 11 matches in the Russian Premier League (RPL) this season. The club’s contract expires in June 2024.
Spartak, which collected 20 points after 12 rounds in the RPL, shares the fourth place with Lokomotiv. In the 13th round, Guillermo Abascal’s team will face Fakel away.
